\"Salted<\/p>\n

Oat flour cookies! YEAH! Get on board, errbody! These are gluten-free, without all sorts of weird gums and xums and powders and shtuff. You know what I mean? Yeah. Good old OATS blended up and put into cooooookies. I said that like \"cooooookie crisp!\" Again, you know what I mean? Roll with it.<\/p>\n

I'm coming atcha from Stirling, Scotland today. Actually, I was there yesterday, and am now en route to Aberdeen and Inverness! THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE HIGHLANDER! Um, I'm on my way to the Highlands. BUT YESTERDAY: I took the train from Edinburgh to Stirling, which was easy and fast and had wifi and allowed me to get work done (which I've definitely been slacking on). Then I arrived at a very friendly hostel (yaaay friends!), and proceeded to walk 8+ miles around town. Like I didn't hike enough<\/a>? Ha!<\/p>\n

\"Salted<\/p>\n

This town definitely is cute - same old stone buildings like in Edinburgh, but on a much smaller scale. But this is where William Wallace (said in my awful Scottish accent) made so much history! If you've seen Braveheart, you know what I'm talking about! I walked up to his monument - overlooking the town and up a very steep slope - then across the bridge<\/a> where he made mayhem, then up to the castle. Whew. I tell you what: I may have walked a lot last week, but it was mostly flat \u2026 yesterday was no. UP down UP down UP UP down. Yeah, you get the idea. I'm gonna return to the states a fit woman! Woop!<\/p>\n

\"Salted<\/p>\n

I didn't plan entirely well yesterday, and could tell I was getting HANGRY as I was walking between the monument and the castle\u2026 I needed food, STAT! Having some of these cooking in tow would have been so nice! Instead I booked it for the grocery store where they stock my new favorite yogurt - it's mixed with whipping cream and delicious flavors for the creamiest, richest, probably fattiest most amazing yogurt I've ever tasted. I AM SOLD! I proceeded to devour two of them, plus beets and carrots and hummus. Look at me being semi-healthy! Ha!<\/p>\n

\"Salted<\/p>\n

Let's talk about these cookies: they're oaty. They're chocolatey. They're salty. They're gluten-free. They're not like your normal glutenous chocolate chip cookies - so don't expect that: they're a little more crumbly, but not necessarily dry! To be honest, I'd ideally do \u00bd normal flour and \u00bd oat flour - for the texture. BUT I wanted to do a totally oat flour cookie (like these brownies<\/a>!), and really was pleased with the results. Get lots of chocolate in there, too! And salt! You really can't go wrong.<\/p>\n

I'm off! Keep up on instagram<\/a> (and snapchat, if you're brave\u2026 I'm overloading people with greenery and castles! username: thekitchenpaper)!<\/p>\nPrint<\/a><\/span>
